When I was a child everyone could sew I learned from my Mum who did know That a good woman could make a rag Into a little dress or a even a bag! I am grateful for this learning And look back with some yearning To an era that has faded And left me feeling jaded.
This seamstress was quite nimble. She met a bartender named Kimbal. As a legend, he'd become a symbol. He served her a beer very chilled. Fortunately, it was to the brim filled. Unfortunately, the whole thing spilled.
These were the first blog posts I began following. Now I'm following so many... When I saw it today I was reminded of the old days (all of three months ago) and I wanted to say that it was nice to read the latest "Verse and Worse." I have always appreciated these quirky quickies.

ReplyDeleteI agree with Sniffles and Smiles... I don't sew, I duct tape!
